This period is great for planting, weeding, harvesting and sorting the seeds for the next planting season. Manipulations with the soil will be successful: loosening, feeding, pest control, weeding. On the 25th lunar day, it is forbidden to water the plantings, since they are not able to take a large amount of liquid.
Experienced gardeners recommend paying attention to shrubs and trees. During this period, you can safely cut off excess and spoiled shoots - this will not harm the plants. It is undesirable to plant and pinch seedlings, as this affects their growth and survival of the shoot.
You can go for medicinal herbs, collect fresh greens and fruits of aboveground plants on your site. The crop harvested on this day is suitable for drying, as the nutritious juices are concentrated in the roots.

Influence of the day of the week
On the first day of the week, the influence of the moon is paramount on human life.Having the peculiarity of introducing chaos and confusion in all matters, the celestial body can significantly spoil even those plans that did not seem to bring any special difficulties in implementation. Astrologers advise against planning global events for Monday, as the hostess of the day can turn everything upside down. If you cannot transfer the planned affairs, then you should listen to your own attitude. Perhaps the Moon itself will tell you how to behave in a given situation.
In the garden and in the garden, you can do mediocre things, the implementation of which will definitely not be able to harm the future harvest or flowering of plants.
It is strongly undesirable to arrange pruning of trees and shrubs. Such actions may not only fail to bring the expected fruiting and rapid flowering, but also ruin green spaces.
On Monday, new seedlings are not planted, and old plants are not transplanted from one place to another. Even the most favorable weather conditions will not help to overcome the influence of the moon, so survival rate and yield will be defective.
It is better to devote this day to:
- care for existing green crops.
- Cleaning dry foliage,
- fertilization of the soil and control of plant pests.
- picking ripe berries, fruits and vegetables.
Moon phase influence
At this time, the activity of plants begins to gradually decrease, all their energy and power accumulate in the rhizome.
Things to do
Since the plants are not currently disposed to rapid growth and the formation of young shoots, it is worth doing cleaning on the personal plot:
- ground tops;
- fallen leaves;
- weed grass;
- dried plants;
- backyard territory.
Sick or dead shrubs and trees can be uprooted. The formation of the crown, pruning of lateral shoots, branches will have a good effect on the state of garden vegetation.
What is undesirable to do
The moon in the 4th waning phase is not a very suitable time for planting seedlings and sowing seeds of plants with ground-based fruit formation. Planted in a given time period, they will:
- grow weak, short;
- take root badly;
- have less resistance to disease.
To a lesser extent, this applies to bulbous and root crops, in which the underground part is the main one, so they more easily tolerate the negative impact on their upper part.
In the last phase, it is worth abandoning watering, loosening the soil, digging it up. The roots are now sensitive to external influences and can negatively respond to damage, and excessive moisture can trigger the decay process.
Fertilization is allowed. It is allowed to spray the ground parts of vegetation with special agents against diseases and harmful insects.
The harvest of root crops collected during this period will have a short shelf life, the fruits will differ in wateriness. They can be canned, like ground fruits harvested at the same time. But salting or fermenting is not desirable.
Influence of the zodiac sign
The Moon in Libra is ruled by Venus. This means that the time has come for increased fertility and successful planting and transplantation of plants, especially flowering ones. Scales help to preserve the harvested crop, add richness and beauty to flowers.
This day has a particularly beneficial effect on the planting of dahlias, gladioli, irises, chrysanthemums and peonies. The root system and tubers of flowers will be strong and resistant to diseases and pests. Caring for plants and trees, from which seeds and stone fruits are expected, also gives good results.
This lunar day contributes to:
- planting all tuberous flowering plants;
- harvesting root crops for storage;
- harvesting flowering medicinal plants;
- hilling and mulching.
It is also a good time for crown formation in large plants and shrubs.
Planting of beets, potatoes, zucchini, pumpkin and cabbage is allowed. You can also plant any stone fruit trees. On this day, it is allowed to preserve and harvest fruits and berries.
These days, the neutral reaction of plants and trees to grafting, fertilizing and harvesting cuttings.
